Name of business: Loza Wine & Crepes Type of business: Crepe restaurant Location: 601 E. Main Street Hours: 8 a.m. to 8 p.m. Monday – Friday Contact information: 209-652-5839 Specialty: Honey-inspired recipes and products History of business: The lot next to a post office may not seem like an ideal location for most restauranteurs, but the location has worked quite nicely for Yelena Tsymbal, owner of Loza Wine & Crepes – Turlock’s newest destination for honey wine, savory crepes and unique Ukrainian cuisine. “The building used to be a house, and was built in 1919 so it’s almost 100 years old,” said Tsymbal, who added that plenty of work went into the former home in order to make it restaurant-ready. Before it became Loza Wine & Crepes, the building was first a home, then used as a thrift shop by Emanuel Medical Center before becoming a real estate office, said Tsymbal.
